TONE ARM (11) — Term from SntMaster Dictionary

TONE ARM (11)

ScnMaster

a control lever on the E-Meter. The tone arm registers density of mass in the mind of the preclear. This is actual mass, not imaginary, and can be weighed, measured by resistance, etc. Therefore, the tone arm registers the state of the case at any given time in processing. As a person is processed, mental mass shifts and dissipates, and the auditor moves the tone arm to compensate for these fluctuations. See also case and E-Meter in this glossary. (ILLO)
